Backups and restore

Back up the Postgres database, not only the API container.

Back up hosted Postgres

Use the Agentic OS backup command from command-centre when you can run it with the hosted database URL:

MEMORY_DATABASE_URL='postgres://postgres:<password>@<host>:5432/agentic_memory' \
  npm run memory:backup

For production, schedule database backups and copy them away from the database host.

Restore hosted Postgres

Restore into a fresh pgvector database:

MEMORY_DATABASE_URL='postgres://postgres:<password>@<host>:5432/agentic_memory' \
  npm run memory:restore -- backups/memory/<backup-file>.dump --yes
